MC.Vmode

Numerical

3430

This parameter indicates the origin of the signal used by the downstream process of the grabber to establish the vertical synchronization.

MultiCam assigns automatically the most appropriate value to Vmode, in conformity with the camera properties.

Values applicable to Domino Iota, Domino Alpha 2

Description

ANALOG_LANE1

MC_Vmode_ANALOG_LANE1

The downstream process is slaved to the vertical camera scanning timing by a detection mechanism applied to the composite synchronization embedded in the analog video signal delivered by the camera on lane 1.

DIGITAL_PULSED

MC_Vmode_DIGITAL_PULSED

The downstream process is slaved to the vertical camera scanning timing by sensing a digital synchronizing signal provided by the camera through the line designated by VsyncLine. The digital signal embeds the vertical synchronization only.

LOCAL

MC_Vmode_LOCAL

The downstream process is slaved to a vertical synchronizing signal derived from the local upstream controller.

Values applicable to Domino Melody, Domino Harmony, Domino Symphony

ANALOG_LANE1

MC_Vmode_ANALOG_LANE1

The downstream process is slaved to the vertical camera scanning timing by a detection mechanism applied to the composite synchronization embedded in the analog video signal delivered by the camera on lane 1.

DIGITAL_PULSED

MC_Vmode_DIGITAL_PULSED

The downstream process is slaved to the vertical camera scanning timing by sensing a digital synchronizing signal provided by the camera through the line designated by VsyncLine. The digital signal embeds the vertical synchronization only.

DIGITAL_MIXED

MC_Vmode_DIGITAL_MIXED

The downstream process is slaved to the vertical camera scanning timing by sensing a digital synchronizing signal provided by the camera through the line designated by CsyncLine. The digital signal embeds both horizontal and vertical synchronization.

LOCAL

MC_Vmode_LOCAL

The downstream process is slaved to a vertical synchronizing signal derived from the local upstream controller.
